Intrepid has been out as a Live CD for a while, should the update system have rolled me up from 8.04 to 8.10 by now? I automatically went from Gutsy to Hardy and I'm still getting regular automatic updates. Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this question or if it has been asked a hundred times before (which I'm sure it has unless it's just me, which it usually is :)

You probably need to modify your "Software Sources" menu to show you normal release disto updates. Sometimes a pic helps:

Thanks guys, just what I needed to know. I thought it might have something to do with LTS.

Won't automatically update...since 8.10 isn't a long term supported version like 8.04 is you have to go to your software sources and go to updates and check unsupported updates. Then reload your updates and it should show up as able to upgrade..but its your choice won't do it on its own...
